THIS WEEK’S CHATTERHEADS
Freddy Lopez, Kelvyn Park
Lynda Lopez, Prosser
Renata Mietus, John Hancock
Emanuel Vinson, Morgan Park
MODERATOR: Give Derrick Rose some advice for his first home playoff game Thursday night against Boston.
FREDDY: Don’t be scared, think of it as a video game. Do it again if you fail.
LYNDA: Remember to have your hearty breakfast of pancakes and Aunt Jemima syrup.
RENATA: Blow a kiss to Shanice in the audience because she really loves you.
EMANUEL: Try to tone down the excessive displays of emotion. It’s unbecoming!
MODERATOR: The White Sox visited the White House this
week. What’s one perk of having the president as your
biggest fan?
FREDDY: The prez would bail me out of prison a bunch of times 😀
LYNDA: You get to hang a picture of you and the president on your bedroom wall.
RENATA: A raise in your salary. You can’t say no to that. My fellow South Siders, expect a raise in taxes. We’ll also need an extra cart on the bandwagon.
EMANUEL: What celebrity fan could the Cubs pull out to compete with Barack? John Cusack? Bill Murray, maybe?
MODERATOR: Make a prediction about this weekend’s NFL
draft.
FREDDY: The Bears will go to the Super Bowl again. … This time they’ll win.
LYNDA: My brother will be drafted into the NFL. I can feel it.
RENATA: It’s going to be very time-consuming.
EMANUEL: The NFL is dead to me now that Madden is gone.
MODERATOR: The Detroit Lions made their logo more
ferocious. How would you make over your school mascot?
FREDDY: I would give my mascot a spiked choker, a leather jacket and an electric guitar. ROCK ON!!!!!!!!!
LYNDA: Our mascot should be the cheetah. Why? We are the quickest and the strongest.
RENATA: It’s an eagle, so maybe I would keep the head and change the body to that of a jaguar.
EMANUEL: I’d give it a Captain Hook-style mustache. Those improve everything.
